Follow Cautiously

Follow Cautiously By Curtis Johnson It’s not that one does not understand the advice It’s that some have been an observer of human life It’s not that one has not listened to the good and the wise It’s just that not all counsel, though ancient, is always right One must not always follow, without question, one’s heart For the heart does not always make for great leadership The heart sometime shifts from one way to another, and turns; And often, the heart knows neither what to do, nor where to go Moreover, the heart suffers from an ancient and incurable disease It’s disease of deception is known only by the wise and the few But the answer to its cure is not a secret, If one dares to utilize its maker’s view cj01182015
